"WAKE UP SLEEPY HEADS!" Toby yelled coming into Sarah's room.
"Go away Toby!" Sarah yelled. He laughed and left the room. Everyone started emerging from sleep. "It is way to early for us to be getting up."
"Ditto." Natalia said getting up. She walked over to Sarah's vanity and looked in the mirror. "I am putting my hair in a ponytail and that's it." Sarah laughed and started to brush her hair. In a matter of seconds, it had gone from wild and crazy, to straight and beautiful. "Your so lucky to have hair like that." Sarah laughed.
"Guys, I overslept, it's 5:30 now. We have to hurry." Karen then rushed back out of the room.
"Crap! Looks like were all going as is." Sarah grumbled.
"Not necessarily." Jareth snapped his fingers and Sarah was in her favorite pajama bottoms and a white shirt. Natalia was in the same thing, but with a black shirt. Shane and Jareth were both in jeans. Jareth had on a black shirt, Shane had on a red one. "Happy?"
"Yes! Thank you!" Sarah said reaching up to kiss his cheek.
"LET'S GO GUYS! WE'RE GETTING MCDONALDS ON THE WAY!" Karen called from downstairs. They grabbed all their luggage from the corner of Sarah's room and headed downstairs.
France
The plane ride was uneventful. In a few hours, they were in France. They got off the plane and walked to the food court where they would meet Sarah's father.
"Anyone hungry?" Sarah asked. Karen had given her 50 for food or whatever she wanted.
"I could go for a taco right about now!" Natalia said. "Look! Taco Bell!" (A.N. I don't know if they have Taco Bell or not. That's just the first thing that came to mind.)
"Sarah!" She turned around to see her father, Robert, coming from the crowd.
"Dad!" He came up and hugged his daughter.
"Wow! You've grown in the past 6 months."
"Yeah, that's what happens when you're never around."
"I know, trust me, I'm planning on being in your life a lot more after this little trip." Sarah looked at him confused, but he went to see the others. "Natalia, you're looking beautiful! Shane, you're growing up. You must me Sarah's boyfriend." He said looking at Jareth.
"Dad, this is Jareth." Sarah said going to grab Jareth's hand.
"Jareth. That's an interesting name. Where are you from?" Sarah didn't need her father knowing who Jareth really was.
"He just moved in last month." Robert nodded.
"Well come on, let's go to my apartment so we can all start having some fun. DRIVER!" He signaled one of the people who drive around in those little carts come over. They loaded their luggage on and left the airport for Robert's apartment.
When they got to the apartment, they first noticed how nicely furnished it was. Just by looking around you could tell that he had spent a lot of money on furniture.
He showed them to their room and let them get everything just the way they wanted. When they were done, they went into the kitchen.
"So what are we going to do today Mr. Rob?" Natalia asked him.
"You guys can do whatever you want. I have to work today, we weren't expecting you to get here until late tonight. So go out and have some fun. Here, take this." He gave Sarah 300. "Get whatever you want. If you need more, just ask. Well, I have to go. Here's my number at work and a calling card. Bye." He then left the apartment.
"Well, what do you all want to do?" Sarah asked.
"Well, France is known for love. How about I take you out somewhere?" Jareth asked Sarah.
"That's fine. Here guys, you take 150 and you go out on a date, too." Sarah gave Shane 150.
"No problem. But how are we going to get there?" Sarah looked at Jareth.
"Fine, fine." He then transported them to a tourist community.
"We'll meet back here at, 8:00. It's 2:00 now okay?" Sarah said.
"Sure. Come on Natalia." Shane led Natalia to the left, so Jareth took Sarah to the right.
Sarah and Jareth went to a movie that they couldn't understand, not that they watched it, a romantic candle lit dinner, and a beautiful walk back to where they were meeting the others. It was cold so Jareth put his arm around her to keep her warm. She put her head on his shoulder and they stayed like this until Natalia and Shane arrived. Then they walked home.
Everything had been so great today, but Sarah's life was about to be turned upside down, and not in a good way.
0o0o0o0o0o0o cliffhanger! I don't know why I bother with it though… I'm going to write the next chapter now anyways. I have a question… does it ever say in the movie that the step-moms name is Karen or do we all just copy it from other stories? I checked the credits in labyrinth… it says stepmother… hmmmmm…
